Small in size with good visibility, these pint-sized containers are ideal for raising or breeding small colonies of disease vectors in labs with restricted space. Also suitable for keeping small animals that do not jump, climb, or claw aggressively, the pint-sized BugDorm can serve as temporary enclosures to conveniently restrain insects caught in the field.
The highly breathable screen pre-installed on the donut lid is of 104 x 94 mesh Nylon netting. Tainted screens can be easily replaced with fresh ones (sold separately) or substituted by your own screen materials.
The donut lid of the pint-sized BugDorm has a matt surface for penciling notes. This lid can also cover petri dishes (NOT sold at the BugDorm Store) with outer diameters of 89 mm or less.
